    So, we are 100% that they weren’t proselytizing while doing their charity work?

    It’s sad they were killed but any sort of missionary work is colonialism. “Your religion isn’t good enough. We’re here to save you.”

    Additionally, they probably knew how dangerous it was. It’s not they were killed doing missionary work in Denmark.

      Absolutely one of the worst takes I’ve seen.

      These aren’t settlers and they weren’t running a Canadian Indian school burying children out back either. Kids trying to share their beliefs (misguided as they may be) aren’t colonizers and if they aren’t welcome, execution is not the right answer you troglodyte.

      It’s not rocket science to expect a society to condemn extrajudicial violence. Your opinion is bad and you should feel bad about it.
